Best age to start soccer training

Playing Football not only helps children strengthen their physical fitness, cultivate positive qualities, be brave in fighting, and not afraid of setbacks, but also makes it easier for them to get into prestigious universities with their football skills. Nowadays, many parents are starting to change their mindset and want their children to receive football training early, but at what age is it best for children to start practicing football? What should I practice? Should I practice my skills? What techniques should and should not be practiced?

Currently, there are some common issues regarding children’s football training:

1. Without children’s football training, there is no youth training. If there is, the athletes trained are players without skills.
2. People who have not engaged in children’s football training do not understand how to cultivate children’s football, no matter how well-known the coaching is or how prestigious the coaching team is. They do not know how to cultivate children’s football.
3. People who have not played football before cannot teach others how to play.
How many footwork exercises are there?
How to approach, step, and stand firm?
What part of the ball does it touch?
What kind of ball is kicked out?
The coach doesn’t even understand it himself, what do you use to teach children?

As for techniques such as dribbling, passing and receiving during movement, shooting, intercepting, and heading the ball, you don’t even know them yourself, or you may not know them halfway. How can you teach your children?
4. Patience, love, dedication, responsibility, and the ability to play football are the qualifications to teach children how to play. Otherwise, using rough and explosive methods, Yan Ke will punish the children, not convincing them with teaching skills, making them afraid of you, rather than convincing them to you, is not a good way to train players.
Nowadays, with the strong promotion of national policies, campus football has become the most concerned sports activity in campus sports. Playing football not only helps children strengthen their physical fitness, cultivate positive qualities, be brave in fighting, and not afraid of setbacks, but also enables them to easily get into prestigious universities in the 985 and 211 universities with their Football skills. Many parents are starting to change their mindset and want their children to receive football training early. Therefore, everyone should understand some basic issues:
At what age is it best for children to start learning to play football?
What ball should children use?
What is the best time to improve technology?
At what age is it better to have contact with the ball
Years of practice have proven that starting to touch the ball at the age of 5 or 6 is better. The so-called “getting started with playing games” is to deceive laypeople (it is possible to play games in winter for activities). 5. At the age of 6, children start playing with their inner soles, arches, and various ball controls. They are the same every day, and after 3 to 4 years of technical training, they go from not knowing how to play, and finally have full confidence, playing with hundreds or even thousands of balls. In practice, I have not encountered any child who feels tired of practicing techniques. On the contrary, they all have a certain sense of achievement and are more interested in football training day by day.

What kind of ball should children use for training

I started training from the age of 5 or 6, using a number 3 Football, and the ball’s momentum should not be too strong. This makes it easier for children to play football without hurting their feet, without fear of the ball, especially in the cold winter.
After two or three years of training in footwork, others can transition from the third ball to the fourth ball, but of course, the ball is more powerful.
After 5 years of training, when the players are 10 or 11 years old, they have already undergone 5 to 6 years of basic technical training. It is recommended to use the number 4 ball, which is almost as strong as the game ball.

 

When is the best time to improve technology

5. At the age of 6, I started receiving formal training and have been practicing for 6 to 8 years. I am already around 13 years old. At this time, I need to strengthen my rapid transformation skills training and simplify complex techniques and training; Simplify techniques and repeat them repeatedly; In the process of repeated practice, players who put in effort and practice will definitely win.
When it is in a competition, its ability to quickly apply technology and speed of change significantly accelerates. Many team members have reached an almost uninhabited level of automation.
The training of basic skills in children’s Football is a process of interlocking each link. Without the previous link, there is no next link. The time for practicing basic skills is 8 to 10 years. If there is no accumulation of basic skills in the next 10 years, there will be no skills under the feet in adulthood.

Note that before the age of 15, children do not practice three things:

Only practice individuals, not the whole;
Only combining ball training techniques, not running 400 meters once, not practicing weight-bearing strength once (for a winter training, a player around 15 years old can only practice frog jumping, half squat upward jumping, and waist and abdominal strength for about 9 times. However, each time they do 7-9 jumps, half squat upward jumping 20 times, leg bending and abdominal contraction 20 to 25 times, and each practice is done in 3 to 4 groups).
Not practicing sustained specialized durability. For example, 3000 meter running, 3000 meter variable speed running, turnaround running, etc. All durability is combined with the ball for intermittent dribbling exercises.

Children’s training has an unforgettable purpose

The training of children’s Football skills always adheres to the principle of only practicing individual skills. Without personal technical support, there can be no tactical training. If some coaches want to show their abilities and insist on practicing tactics, they are just going through the motions and have no substantive effect (except for those who have entered the professional team after the age of 14). If you want to improve the tactical awareness of players, you can stop and play during the game, pointing out how to run, pass, and stand.

Note that children’s football skills training should focus on the following exercises:

Technical practice, focusing on dribbling and ball control, as well as passing and receiving skills, is of utmost importance in training children’s skills. Of course, team matches are essential for each training session.
If children are repeatedly arranged to practice shooting, it may look lively but with little effect. The principle is simple: the level of shooting depends on the diversity and quality of mastering the changes in footwork. Without mastering the technique of arched ball on the back of the feet, outside the back of the feet, and inside the back of the feet, it is impossible to shoot well, and shooting is also a waste of practice.
Physical fitness only focuses on agility, flexibility, and combined ball speed.

Let’s talk about the direction of children’s players again

Before the age of 15, one must enter the professional ladder and strive to enter the national youth team; To enter the national youth team at the age of 16 to 20; At the age of 22 (not equal to 23 years old), he needs to enter the national Olympic team and become a key player in various periods of time. To become such a player, you have the ability to bring glory to the country and the nation.
